I know. For most people it's Facebook. Go out, get drunk, snap pics, upload, tag friends, Like. Repeat. Everybody does this. But I don't want this. Flickr was a solution once upon a time but Flickr is, um, not what it used to be. How about Picasa? Something else?

Flickr has been bleeding users like a hemophiliac since around the time Google+ launched. Now, Yahoo's doing something about it. Flickr senior product lead Markus Spiering has hinted that big changes are in store for the photo-sharing site come month's end.

If you're considering migrating your social media life from Facebook to Google+, you'll probably want to start with your pictures. Move2Picasa.com drags your entire photo library from the House of Zuckerberg over to Picasa, which will soon be Google Photos.

Google's Google+ initiative has brought us a lot already. Turns out, there's more coming. Mashable is reporting that Google will retire the Blogger and Picasa brands and flip them into something like Google Blogs and Google Photos. Laaaaaaame.

Picasa is limited to 1GB of storage (unless you pay up for more Google bytes) but now there's a free workaround. You can upload unlimited photos (smaller than 2048x2048) and videos (under 15 minutes) Google+ and it doesn't touch your storage limit. [ReadWriteWeb]

You recognize the convenience of Google's cloud-based apps but remain a command line devotee. Thankfully, Google's new command line tool lets you edit Google Docs, upload photos to Picasa and post to Blogger while maintaining your geek cred. [Google]

One of the more straightforward acquisitions Google's made in a while, they've just bought the online image editor Picnick. Given Google's past acquisition strategy—turning Grand Central into Google Voice, Writely into Google Docs—the logical expectation is that it'll get merged into its already excellent Picasa photo…

There's nothing majorly wrong with Apple's MobileMe service. All of its subsidiary pieces and parts—the email, the syncable calendar and contacts, the photo gallery, the online storage—do fine. So why doesn't it make sense?

Feature for feature, Picasa for Mac is almost exactly the same as its Windows and Linux counterparts. The organization paradigm is exactly the same, as is the interface (which, it bears mentioning, somehow still looks natural in OS X). Even the automatic system-wide photo indexing worked fine, as did a few different…

As you can see in the clip above, Panasonic's Wi-Fi enabled Lumix TZ50 connects to most wireless networks—including T-Mobile Hotspots—and uploads your pictures directly to a Picasa account. It works in reverse also, photos placed online are browsable by the camera. When we tried it out, a picture took about 25 seconds…

TiVo today announced you can now access accounts with Photobucket and Google's Picasa using any broadband-connected TiVo, and as a bonus, if you have a TiVo HD or Series3, you can see the pics in HD resolution. This isn't necessarily a revolution—you've been able to pull photos locally from your computer for years…

Google announced on their blog that they're offering additional storage for their Gmail, Google Apps, and Picasa services. Storage sizes of 6, 25, 100, and 250 GB are available at prices ranging between 20 and 500 dollars a year. We hoped for more flexibility in how the storage could be used, but it's nice for those…
